Lots of people and Sensory Overload

Yesterday I went to a monthly supper club held by CCRI, the non-profit that hires my staff, at Bennigan's and I almost had a meltdown because there was so many people and it was WAY too crowded, and the food took forever because there was one waitress taking orders for 50-odd people. UGH!!!

Christmas!

Christmas was very good. My 3yo nephew was being a adorable little brat that can't stop talking, like usual. My 11yo niece got a Wii Fit Plus and we having a lot of fun with it (YAY, YOGA!!!). Mom, like usual, made good food (except the ribs, I HATE ribs, messing with ribs sets off my executive dysfunction, GAH!!!). The only problems were the Christmas snowstorm, which made me have to shovel my mom's driveway 3 days in a row, and the dry air in my mom's house, which was really bad for my sinuses.

On the plus side I got a bunch of new clothes from my mom and my sister, eyeglasses cleaning stuff from my staff Steph, and $100 from my grandmother. I've spent about half on the money already on books on my latest special interest, meditation and Buddhism, LOL.

The only clothes I didn't like was a sweater made out of ACRYLIC FIBER! ACK!!! Itchy as Hell!

I Hate Dental Work.

Got a molar pulled today. Surprisingly it was not even close to being as unpleasant as getting fillings. I just felt some pressure and a popping feeling when the nerves going to the tooth root were snapped, totally painless. What sucks is the gauze in my mouth absorbing the blood from the empty tooth socket, so uncomfortable. Looking at my yanked tooth was kinda of cool, though.

Almost Had a Meltdown at Best Buy Today

I went to pick up my old computer from the Geek Squad. The 2 people ahead of me took, like, a half hour to do whatever they were doing, getting me ticked off, the constant beeping sounds and alarms coming from every which way, all the people close to me, and many other things were overloading my senses. Then this rude woman that didn't seem all that bright pushed right through the line because she was told that whatever she was getting would be ready in 5 minutes, as if that gave her an excuse to cut in line! That almost sent me over the edge.


Not fun!
